“…little did I know that this opportunity would open more doors”

Bri Funte, Class of 2014

“My internship with the Minnesota Vikings was my first public relations-focused internship, and little did I know that this opportunity would open more doors as I progress toward a career. At the last Vikings game of the season, I introduced myself to the director of public relations for the Green Bay Packers. Figuring they had internship programs, too, I kept in contact and sent my information their way. In late July, I took off for Green Bay where I spent six weeks as a training camp intern. My professors have been by my side throughout both of my NFL experiences.”
